Happy, happy hump day! Since I didn’t photograph many of my meals this week (and don’t want to bore you to death), I’m sharing a simple-but-satisfying recipe that takes advantage of the remnants of summer produce. The idea came to me as I discovered a single nectarine and half a package of goat cheese in…

To Everything There Is a Season… {+ WIAW}
We’re into our second week of September, which, in the blogosphere, means that pumpkin season is in full swing! I’ve even jumped on the bandwagon this week by digging into a salvaged can of last year’s pumpkin purée (that may or may not have been expired for a few months—oops!) for yesterday’s overnight oats (with…
What I’ve Been Reading Wednesday
Some days I just don’t feel like embracing my inner food voyeur by sharing what I’ve eaten recently (it gets kind of boring since I eat a lot of the same things week to week, not to mention my appetite today was all but nonexistent). Even so, I do enjoy participating in the lovely Jen’s…
WIAW + Grocery Budget Adventures
If you recall the week before last’s WIAW, you’ll know we’re attempting to cut back on our grocery spending. Well, this weekend’s haul was a pricy one (though it did include dog food for Iggy, toilet paper, and several bottles of wine—none of which are weekly purchases), but we did make some reasonable choices I…
What I’ve Been Eating Lately {WIAW}
Far too often, I fall into a food rut. Meals haven’t been extremely exciting around here, and we always tend to eat the same things, week after week. Sometimes, though, eating similar meals week after week (or even day after day) is a welcome “problem.” For this week’s What I Ate Wednesday, I’m sharing some…
Grocery Budgeting + WIAW
Happy Hump Day! It’s time for our favorite link-up party, What I Ate Wednesday, but before I get into that, let me just say that meals around these parts are not going to be the most exciting. With $3.69 bottles of kombucha, an unfortunate $17.00 cherry purchase, and my inability to say “no” to new…
The Importance of Breakfast + WIAW
This segment on NPR’s Morning Edition caught my attention yesterday because I’ve become somewhat of a breakfast zealot around the house. When I was in high school, I can remember my mother cooking an egg sandwich for me almost every morning before I left for school. She was adamant about ensuring I began the day…
What I Ate..and What Almost Ate Me (But Not Really)
I’ve become so pathetically predictable: I only seem to post on Mondays and Wednesdays these days. It’s not that I’ve been incredibly busy; it’s just that the computer screen is the last thing I want to see when I’m home from an 8-hour desk job! Speaking of an 8-hour desk job, I’m so glad the…
You Are What You Eat {WIAW}
If you don’t believe that our daily food choices directly impact how we feel—especially during physical activity—then I have some news for you. You’re wrong! After a weekend of indulgences (beer, wine, froyo, ice cream, a frappucino, hotdogs, a hamburger, gooey macaroni and cheese, and a couple of salads for good measure) and 3.5-hour car…
WIAW: Clearing Out the Fridge
Confession: I have a thing about wasting food. In fact, I’m kind of a zealot about it (just ask my husband). Even so, I manage to waste far more food than necessary (fresh vegetables that are inadvertently pushed to the bottom of the crisper and rediscovered weeks later, anyone?). To rectify this, I’ve been trying…
